How Much Does a House Clearance in Brussels Cost?
Detailed prices and tips to reduce the cost in 2026
Published on 27 January 2026 | 7 min read
The price of a house clearance in Brussels is the first question our clients ask. And rightly so: it is essential to know the budget required before launching this type of project. The good news is that the cost can be considerably reduced, or even eliminated, thanks to the buyback of valuable items. Here is our complete guide to 2026 prices.
Average Prices for a House Clearance in Brussels in 2026
Prices vary mainly depending on the size of the property and the volume to be removed. Here are the price ranges charged by professionals in Brussels:
Indicative prices. The exact rate is determined during the free on-site visit.
Factors That Influence the Price
Several factors affect the cost of a house clearance in Brussels:
Volume to remove
The more items and furniture there are, the greater the workload. A house cluttered over 40 years will cost more than a sparsely furnished property.
Floor and accessibility
A 5th-floor apartment without a lift requires more manpower. Access for the truck (narrow streets, limited parking) also has an impact.
Valuable items
This is the most impactful factor. The presence of antiques, old furniture, paintings or jewellery can drastically reduce the price through buyback.
Urgency
A standard house clearance planned in advance will generally be cheaper than an emergency intervention within 24 hours.
Cleaning included
Basic cleaning (sweeping) is often included. A thorough deep clean may incur an additional charge.
Special materials
Certain materials (asbestos, chemicals, hazardous waste) require special handling at an extra cost.
Item Buyback: Your Best Savings Lever
This is the key advantage of AAB Brocanteur compared to a simple clearance company: as a professional second-hand dealer with over 30 years of experience, we buy back all items that have value.
Our experts identify valuable pieces on site: Art Deco or Art Nouveau furniture, antique crockery, silverware, paintings, rare books, jewellery, clocks, musical instruments and more. The buyback amount is directly deducted from your invoice.
Real example: For a 180m2 house in Uccle, the clearance cost was 1,800 EUR. Our experts identified and bought back Art Deco furniture for 2,200 EUR. Result: the client received 400 EUR instead of paying.
Free House Clearance: Is It Possible?
Yes, a free house clearance in Brussels is entirely possible when the value of the items bought back exceeds the cost of the clearance. This occurs particularly in the following cases:
- Older houses with period furniture in good condition
- Presence of collections (stamps, coins, books, vinyl records)
- Jewellery, silverware, precious metal items
- Signed paintings and works of art

- Make access easy: good parking for the truck and clear access reduce the work time.
